In response to ODBC Problem v7.1 beta4  ("Steve Shaffer" <sxs@coldmetal.com>)
List pgsql-hackers
<AOLdummy> Me too ! :-))

Same problem on Debian-unstable + Oliver Elphick's beta4 packages + UnixODBC
2.0.3

Database still can be accessed through ODBC in you don't need the tables list
: tried from the stats package R through RODBC : sqlTables() fails, sqlQuery()
works. So the problem is probably an interface change in pg itself ...

I wrote to Nick Gorham about the ODBC problem. He asks for "a day or so" to
investigate ...

Oh, BTW : Same problem (no views, some system tables not listed) with PgAccess
0.98.7. This one is probably related to PgAccess itself : it seems unaware of
the "new and improved" internal structure ... Select * from pg_views works
...
